Rated 5.0 Have been going here for years. There have been only a couple times when I wasn't absolutely thrilled with the experience. And I've been here probably close to 70 times! The staff is very attentive. The food is OMG excellent. Never had a dish that I wouldn't have again. The portions are ample. The masala chai is divine. The owner is a really nice guy. I'm a white guy raised in the pacific north west and this has become my comfort food.

Rated 5.0 I love this place! The food is delicious, the servings are generous, the service is excellent, and the people are friendly. I almost always get the tandoori salmon, but friends who get other things assure me those items are good as well.

Rated 5.0 Loved the food, the decor, people are nice, it's clean everywhere even the bathrooms are very clean. I would love it more if they had a small image of each entree next to the food, it would help to make up my mind. And also it would be good that as often as they come to the table to see if you need anything, they could remove the dirty empty dishes as well.

Rated 5.0 Sadly, abysmal service ruined lunch today. This never happened other times we were there. Food was served to part of the table, then the last lunch was brought after enough minutes for it to arrive cold. But we never saw the waitress again! I could go on and on but I will just say this never happened before at this place. Such a disappointment.

Rated 5.0 In Sothern California most Himalayan restaurants have menus that primarily consist of Indian food, with maybe 1 or 2 Nepali and Tibetan options. Himalayan Cuisine makes a point to mainly serve Nepali and Tibetan, and the staff are actual Nepalis. Friendly service and tasty, authentic food.

Rated 5.0 We treated my grandson here on his recommendation. The food was great. We had chicken tikka masala,chicken briyani snd chicken with coconut milk. Nan bread plain and with garlic. The soup was lentil with caraway seeds. Every dish was delicious and prepared well . You have your choice of heat,mild,medium or spicey. The hot chai tea hit the spot on a cold night. I slept like a baby after a winderful meal and warming tea. I would recommend this place again snd again.

Rated 5.0 This is one of my favorite restaurants in San Diego. The food is excellent and the staff are so nice and polite. I have been many times and have never had a bad experience. We went for lunch on Mother's Day and the wait for our food was a bit longer than usual, but they were somewhat busy. Try the Chicken Tikka Masala!

Rated 5.0 Our recent visit was pretty good. Nearer to closing on a Saturday night. I ordered Buttered chicken and my daughter ordered Chicken tikka masala. Both very tasty. But I have to say the garlic cilantro naan was spectacular. We wanted baskets of it. The atmosphere was nice but the decor, somewhat dated. Plenty of staff on hand and quick service a plus.
